Italy is a country multifaceted, polarized if you want. Historically, developed and industrial North is contrasted to the South, more rural and less advanced technologically. However, in the recent years, especially after the second war, technology and industry, and agro-industries, were not that led Italy to be the seventh world economy. But this facet of development contrasts with the deep and rich history of Italy, cradle of Western civilization, and that has left a deep imprint on the European cultural development throughout history. What better idea that begin by Pisa, capital of Tuscany, one of the most beautiful regions of the Earth. And there is a hotel in ideal Pisa by its privileged location, very close to the most important tourist attractions of the area: AC Hotels in Pisa. AC Hotels is situated in the neighbourhood of Cisanello, a pop-up shopping area of Pisa, which has gone through a great development in recent years.

Is near the airport Galileo Galilei, the largest of the province, and boasts direct transportation for their guests to the Piazza dei Miracoli, the site where the world-famous leaning of Pisa Tower is located. Pisa has a special feature on its soil, and is that the same is quite sandy and unstable, so it is not the only Tower inclined city. The sandy soil tends to settle once the construction of the buildings has been completed, by which they are inclined unfailingly. The Piazza dei Miracoli is one of the attractions of Pisa which no visitor should not pass when in the city. It is, by definition, one of the most important centers of art and world culture, of great importance during the Renaissance.

The leaning tower is neither more nor less than the Bell Tower of the Cathedral of the assumption of the Virgin, an imposing basilica that has five naves. The Tower has around 55 meters high, a portent for the era, and dates from the year 1173. For many years, due to danger of collapse, was closed to the public, although in 2001, after more than ten years of work, was again allowed to be accessed. Without a doubt, this is one of the most picturesque sites of the city, which guests at the AC Pisa hotel will have access because they enjoy a facilitated transport service.
